      Dear
      Ed.
     
    
   
   
    
     
      I
      am
      writing
      in
      response
      to
      a
     
     
      letter
      to
      the
      editor
      which
      appeared
      in
     
     
      the
      Feb.
      6,
      2002
      issue
      of
      The
      Cadre.
     
    

    
     
      I
      believe
      that
      if
      ‘anonymous’,
     
     
      and
      I
      quote,
      “has
      any
      balls”,
      then
      he
      or
     
     
      she
      would
      have
      signed
      their
      name
      to
     
     
      their
      opinion,
      thereby
      eliminating
      the
     
     
      hypocrisy
      from
      their
      comments.
      And
      if
     
     
      he
      or
      she
      had
      refrained
      from
      low
      brow
     
     
      comments
      concerning
      Mr.
      Lloyd’s
      sex-
     
     
      ual
      practices
      and
      his
      choice
      of
      televi-
     
     
      sion
      programs,
      their
      point
      would
      be
     
     
      better
      taken.
     
    

    
     
      Although
      I
      do
      not
      agree
      with
     
     
      the
      language
      used
      by
      Mr.
      Lloyd
      to
     
     
      express
      his
      opinion
      on
      the
      lack
      of
      park-
     
     
      ing
      ability
      among
      UPEI
      students
      and
     
     
      staff,
      he
      does
      have
      a
      valid
      point.
      I
      am
      a
     
     
      student
      at
      UPEI
      and
      I
      do
      not
      like
      to
     
     
      walk
      long
      distances
      to
      class
      from
      my
     
     
      vehicle
      either,
      but
      I
      always
      park
      in
     
     
      designated
      spaces
      only,
      and
      get
     
     
      extremely
      frustrated
      when
      an
      ignorant
     
     
      and
      obviously
      self
      absorbed
      person
     
     
      parks
      at
      the
      end
      of
      the
      rows
      in
      the
      park-
     
     
      inglot
      behind
      the
      Steele
      building,
      and
     
     
      forces
      everyone
      who
      drives
      to
      the
      front
     
     
      of
      the
      lot
      to
      reverse-all
      the
      way
      back
      to
     
     
      access
      the
      rest
      of
      the
      lot.
      I
      know
      the
     
     
      lack
      of
      parking
      spaces
      is
      an
      issue,
      but
      I
     
     
      do
      not
      believe
      that
      gives
      people
      the
     
    
   
   
    
     
      right
      to
      park
      wherever
      they
      feel
      like.
     
    

    
     
      And
      in
      addition,
      I
      wish
      every-
     
     
      one
      would
      slow
      down
      just
      a
      bit
      in
      the
     
     
      parking
      lots,
      especially
      when
      going
     
     
      around
      corners
      which
      are
      made
      nar-
     
     
      rower
      by
      people
      parking
      in
      the
      road-
     
     
      way
      at
      the
      end
      of
      the
      rows.
      It
      can
      be
      a
     
     
      dangerous
      venture
      to
      attempt
      to
      find
      a
     
     
      spot
      when
      you
      have
      a
      large
      number
      of
     
     
      vehicles
      hurtling
      across
      an
      icy
      surface,
     
     
      all
      in
      search
      of
      that
      elusive
      parking
     
     
      spot.
      Is
      that
      spot
      worth
      a
      smashed
      car?
     
     
      And
      with
      all
      the
      talk
      of
      obesity
      in
      our
     
     
      society,
      would
      it
      really
      hurt
      to
      walk
      a
     
     
      little
      ways
      to
      class,
      wear
      a
      hat
      and
     
     
      gloves
      if
      you’re
      cold,
      or
      would
      that
     
     
      mess
      up
      your
      hair?
      I
      personally
      do
      not
     
     
      park
      in
      the
      lot
      behind
      Steele
      during
     
     
      high
      traffic
      times,
      for
      fear
      of
      some
     
     
      absent
      minded
      driver
      smashing
      my
      car.
     
     
      I
      am
      not
      sure
      of
      the
      insurance
      policy
     
     
      involving
      UPEI
      parking
      lots,
      but
      if
      it
      is
     
     
      like
      a
      mall
      parking
      lot,
      it’s
      50/50,
      no
     
     
      matter
      who
      is
      at
      fault.
     
    

    
     
      Well,
      that’s
      my
      two
      cents
     
     
      worth.
     
    
   
   
    
     
      Mike
      Lavigne,
     
     
      UPEI
      History
      student
     
    
   
   
    
     
      Thoughtful
      words
      in
      The
      Cadre—it
     
     
      was
      bound
      to
      happen
      someday,
      I
      sup-
     
     
      pose.
      Thanks,
      Mike.
